Leather and Construction
Race suits are made from cowhide because leather resists abrasion in a slide. The specification for this suit lists:
- 1.2-1.3 mm drum-dyed milled cowhide as the main material
- Dual and triple safety stitching at critical seams
- Accordion stretch panels, plus Cordura stretch at the sleeves, crotch and calf
- Pre-curved sleeves shaped for a racing crouch
- YKK semi-auto-lock zippers at the front, cuffs and calves
- Neoprene cuff and collar with a polyester mesh lining
Protection Listed for the Suit
The product page lists CE Level 2 armor (EN 1621-1:2012) and spine protection (EN 1621-2) in its overview, and describes removable armor at the knees, shoulders and elbows. The order form, however, lists CE Level 2 (EN 1621-1:2012) as an add-on, and hip armor appears only in the specifications, so the armor fitted depends on the options chosen. Check the order form for the armor fitted and request test documentation. External TPU-reinforced metal protectors on the shoulders and knees, TPU elbow sliders and replaceable knee sliders are also listed. EN 1621-1 is the standard for limb joint impact protectors, and EN 1621-2 covers back protectors (SATRA overview of EN 1621). Armor reduces impact forces but cannot prevent injury, and its effect depends on the protector sitting in the right place on the body.
Fit and Options
The product page lists standard sizes that follow its size guide, and a custom size option appears on the order form. The order form also lists speed hump variants (standard, ventilated or Hydro), perforation patterns, Monaco or kangaroo leather upgrades, a removable lining and a thermal removable lining as options and add-ons. Riders building a matching kit can add a pair of , and the wider collection shows other replica suits.
